[Dimitri also happens to be out shopping, but at the moment, he's checking out the grocery store. It's a pretty incredible place in his eyes; he's never seen so much food in a single place, even in the monastery back home. And the packaging...there's some very odd packaging for some of these goods, too.

He stops looking around when an unfamiliar girl addresses him, though. For now, she's got his full attention.]

Alchemy? I know of it, but I have no particular knowledge about it. As for apothecaries, I believe they call them "pharmacies" here. Have you seen any stores with that name?
